- Grateful for the Dhamma
Thank you to whomever created this podcast. The readings of the Suttas are clear and well paced. I am in Recovery Dharma and read the Suttas to further develop my understanding of the BuddhaDhamma, but it is so much nicer to hear the teachings than reading them. Thank you. Keep up the good work!
